House passes Pentagon policy bill roiled by transgender-care debate
Posted on 12/12/2024
The House on Wednesday passed an $895.2 billion defense policy bill after Democrats blasted the inclusion of a provision — pushed at the 11th hour by Speaker Mike Johnson — to prohibit the military’s health-care system from providing specialized treatments to the transgender children of U.S. service members.
The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) passed 281-140, with fewer than half of the chamber’s Democrats voting in favor of what is typically a bipartisan piece of legislation.
